Commentary on Thomas Aquinas's Virtue Ethics (Hardcover)

Although St Thomas Aquinas famously claimed that his Summa
Theologiae was written for 'beginners', contemporary readers find
it unusually difficult. Now, amid a surge of interest in virtue
ethics, J. Budziszewski clarifies and analyzes the text's
challenging arguments about the moral, intellectual, and spiritual
virtues, with a spotlight on the virtue of justice. In what might
be the first contemporary commentary on Aquinas' virtue ethics, he
juxtaposes the original text with paraphrase and detailed
discussion, guiding us through its complex arguments and classical
rhetorical figures. Keeping an eye on contemporary philosophical
issues, he contextualizes one of the greatest virtue theorists in
history and brings Aquinas into the interdisciplinary debates of
today. His brisk and clear style illuminates the most crucial of
Aquinas' writings on moral character and guides us through the
labyrinth of this difficult but pivotal work.
